उत्तर
This statement is True.
Explanation:
A monopolist faces a downward-sloping demand curve, which means in order to boost sales, the monopolist must lower the price. This is because, in a monopoly, the firm is the only source of the goods, and if it wants to sell more, it must lower the price to attract more buyers, as it cannot sell an unlimited number at a high price.
